WatchProSite member Watchonthewrist introduces the F.P. Journe Chronomètre Souverain Dubai Edition, a limited release of 99 pieces. This article delves into the unique characteristics of this sought-after timepiece, celebrating its distinctive green aesthetic and the immediate collector interest it generated. The discussion highlights the watch's design elements and broader F.P. Journe production trends.
The F.P. Journe Chronomètre Souverain represents the foundational timepiece within the brand's Souveraine collection. This reference demonstrates the manufacture's approach to precision timekeeping through manual winding mechanics, positioned as a core offering in F.P. Journe's lineup.
The 40mm case is executed in 18k rose gold with a fixed bezel configuration. A sapphire crystal protects the silver dial, while the manual-winding caliber 1304 movement provides an 80-hour power reserve. The timepiece features 30-meter water resistance and is paired with a leather strap. Production commenced in 2000.
This reference appeals to collectors seeking F.P. Journe's mechanical execution in a fundamental three-hand configuration. The substantial power reserve and manual winding caliber position this model for enthusiasts who appreciate traditional watchmaking approaches within the Souveraine series framework.

Are those applied markers/numerals? Thank you for sharing! 🥂 Jen
It have a nice lime green color. Many people loves lime color, so it is strange so little watches have a lime colored dial.
sure a strap contrasting it will put the dial even more in the radar imho Best, mahesh.,
I do very much like this variant of the CS (as I do the CB without the PR), and what I assume are now applied numerals. The green being used here looks very good, but hard to tell without seeing in person. This is another great (and fun) piece in what is an outstanding collection.
I like that this one omits the power reserve. Very pure dial layout. I hope FPJ releases more like it without the PR on the dial side, and with subtle dial colors. Cheers, John
